Athena Gold Corporation Provides Update on Nevada Projects Athena Gold Corporation announced plans for its upcoming exploration program at its recently acquired Laird Lake project, located in Ontario's prolific Red Lake Gold District. The Laird Lake project, spanning 4,158 hectares and covering over 10 km of Balmer-Confederation Assemblage contact, represents an underexplored portion of the camp. The project is road-accessible and lies approximately 10 km west of West Red Lake Gold Mines' Madsen mine, and 34 km northwest of Kinross Gold's Great Bear project. Starting May 2025, the Company plans to collect approximately 2,000 till samples over its Laird Lake project. The program will range from 100 m x 100 m grid spacing within the Balmer and Confederation assemblages and expand to 200 m x 200 m within the surrounding felsic intrusive bodies. With the results from this upcoming program, Athena hopes to outline zones of new mineralization within the Laird Lake project, where recent grab samples returned up to 373 g/t Au. Athena is aiming to use the same sampling methodology used at West Red Lake Gold's nearby Madsen project, which successfully confirmed existing mineralization and outlined potential new zones. Athena expects to have the final results from the program in mid-summer, which will guide follow-up field work focused on de-risking the Company's maiden drill program at Laird Lake. Nevada Update: The Company recently completed a regional prospecting and mapping program over its 100%-owned Excelsior Springs Au-Ag project in Nevada, where initial results returned surface grab samples up to 6,630 g/t Ag. All results from the program have since been received and analyzed. The Company is highly encouraged by the regional prospectivity, and on the back of these results, it has mobilized staking activities to expand its land holdings near its Excelsior Springs project. The Company plans to release additional results from the program after staking activities have been completed. The Company has received third-party interest regarding potential joint venture partnerships and earn-in agreements across its Nevada portfolio. 공지 • Apr 08

Athena Gold Samples 56.5 G/T Gold At Laird Lake, Red Lake Gold District, Ontario Athena Gold Corporation reported high-grade gold samples from its reconnaissance surface sampling program at its newly acquired Laird Lake project, located in Ontario's prolific Red Lake Gold District. The Laird Lake project, spanning 4,158 hectares and covering >10 km of Balmer-Confederation Assemblage contact, represents an underexplored portion of the Red Lake Gold District. The project is road-accessible and lies approximately 10 km west of West Red Lake Gold Mines' flagship Madsen mine, and 34 km northwest of Kinross Gold's Great Bear project. Highlights: An initial six surface grab samples taken at the Laird Lake project in July 2024 confirmed mineralization over 2.2 km of strike length along the contact between the Balmer and Confederation Assemblages. Mineralization is open along strike to the east and west. The Balmer-Confederation contact is believed to serve as a major structural control for gold mineralization in the Red Lake Gold District, with >90% of all gold ever mined in the camp occurring within approximately 300 m of this contact. The highest-grade sample returned up to 56.5 g/t Au collected from a smoky quartz vein with blebby pyrite, chalcopyrite, and traces of visible gold. Grab sample assays from additional prospecting work conducted in October 2024 remain pending, with results expected to be received by year-end. The recent reconnaissance prospecting program is expected to guide a property-wide geochemistry survey, scheduled to commence in H1/2025, the results of which are anticipated to provide targets for Athena's initial drill program at Laird Lake. A recently completed MSc. thesis on the Laird Lake project, suggested that Laird Lake represents the continuation of the same mineralized structure found at both the Madsen and Starratt-Olsen gold mines now owned by West Red Lake Gold (2.5 Moz past-production, 1.7 Moz indicated, 0.4 Moz inferred) [ii] and was later displaced as far as 10 km west. Gold mineralization observed at Laird Lake occurs in discrete quartz veins hosted in volcanic rock, localized high-strain zones consisting of silicification and disseminated sulfides, and in more broad zones of strongly deformed banded iron formation up to 15 m wide characterized by gossan, fine-grained disseminated sulfides, and silicification. Gold-bearing zones exhibit a general east-west orientation and occur in both Balmer and Confederation Assemblage rocks. The initial grab sample results are described in detail below: A sample of smoky quartz vein hosted in Balmer Assemblage volcanic rock containing blebby pyrite, chalcopyrite, and visible gold returned 56.5 g/t Au (F733057). This sample was taken approximately 50 m north of the contact with the Confederation Assemblage and was the most western sample collected. Two additional samples of gossaned and silicified volcanic host rock collected adjacent to the high-grade quartz vein returned 1.47 g/t Au and 2.40 g/t Au (F733056 and F733058, respectively). A sample of strongly deformed banded iron formation (BIF) from the Balmer Assemblage containing fine-grained disseminated pyrite, and silicification returned 3.89 g/t Au (F733053), and was collected from an outcrop approximately 15 m in width and characterized by a strong overall deformation fabric with several high-strain zones of gossan, fine-grained pyrite, and silicification throughout. The outcrop is located approximately 60 m north of the Balmer-Confederation contact. A sample of sulfide-bearing quartz vein hosted in the Confederation Assemblage returned 1.57 g/t Au (F733062). This sample was collected approximately 225 m south of the Balmer-Confederation contact. A sample of sulfide-bearing quartz vein hosted in a high-strain zone within Confederation Assemblage returned 7.18 g/t Au (F733065). The high-strain zone is characterized by silicification, fine-grained disseminated sulfides, and lesser gossan. Refolded quartz veins were noted along the contact of the high-strain zone and volcanic host rock. This sample was collected approximately 180 m south of the Balmer-Confederation contact eastern-most sample collected. Future Drill Testing: Laird Lake has been subject to only very limited historical exploration work, largely because the Balmer-Confederation contact was only mapped on Laird Lake in recent times as part of a MSc. research thesis. Importantly, >90% of all gold ever mined in the Red Lake Gold District is estimated to occur within 300 m of this contact. Athena's initial work programs are focused on understanding structural controls and potential splays off this contact that may host high-grade gold mineralization. Additional assays from the follow-up program that took place in October 2024 remain pending, with results expected by year-end. Athena plans to conduct a property wide gold-in-till geochemistry program in Spring 2025. Historical, high-resolution airborne magnetic and electromagnetic surveys highlighted several prospective targets within the Balmer Assemblage that have yet to be tested will be included in future drilling on the property, in addition to other targets generated from prospecting and geochemical programs. 공지 • Oct 03

Athena Gold Corporation Samples Up to 50.6 g/t Gold from Buster Mine at Excelsior Springs Project, Walker Lane, Nevada Athena Gold Corporation reported high-grade gold and silver samples from its first-ever underground mapping and sampling program at its Excelsior Springs project in Nevada's prolific Walker Lane District. Five samples were collected underground from the past-producing Buster Mine, which historically produced an estimated 19,200 oz Au at an average grade of 41.1 g/t Au. Two of these samples returned high-grade Au, including: 50.6 g/t Au and 33.7 g/t Ag over 0.3 m, from the 75' level; and 28.1 g/t Au and 29.6 g/t Ag over 1.0 m, from the 125' level. The reconnaissance program conducted in August 2024 represents Athena's first-time underground at the Buster Mine, providing an opportunity for the team to have a close-up look at the mineralized orebody and gain a better understanding of structural controls at Excelsior. Historical sampling included four samples which exceeded the upper detection limit of 10 g/t Au; however, these were never analyzed to completion. The geologist who collected the surface and underground samples at the Buster Mine in 1986 estimated a mineralized zone containing a historical mineral inventory of up to 200,000 oz Au within a shallow depth of 61 m. This estimate is historical in nature and should not be relied upon as a current mineral resource. Two distinct structural orientations were observed and believed to be controlling mineralization, both east-west striking. The first is very steeply north dipping and yielded 50.6 g/t Au over 0.3 m. This sample was collected near the eastern stope on the 75' level, where historical sampling returned 5.8 g/t Au over 1.07 m. Historically, the higher-grade samples which exceeded the 10 g/t Au detection limit were collected from the western stope on the 75' level. Most of the past production occurred within the western stope, which extends from near surface to the 125' level. On the 125' level, a shallow 35° north dipping fault zone yielded 28.1 g/t Au over 1.0 m. The steeper structures identified on the 75' level appear to be cut by this younger, shallow structure. This work program demonstrated the important role these shallow structures, which can be traced on surface, play in the control of mineralization at Excelsior Springs. Additional surface and underground mapping will be conducted to better understand the distribution and extent of mineralization along these structures to better target future drilling. 공지 • Aug 30

Athena Gold Corporation Announces Results from its Phase 3 Drilling Program at its 100% Owned, 4,000 Acre Excelsior Springs Gold Project Athena Gold Corporation announced results from its Phase 3 drilling program (the "Program") at its 100% owned, 4,000 acre Excelsior Springs Gold Project (the "Project" or the "Property"), located approximately 45 miles southwest of Goldfield in Esmeralda County, Nevada. DH 23-03: Intersected 1.02 g/t Au and 8.2 g/t Ag over 51.8 meters, starting at 29.0 meters. This lengthy intercept extended the Western Slope Zone about 23 m eastward at similar depths to the two intercepts reported from RC hole 22-02. The mineralization was well distributed throughout the interval. DH 23-01: Intersected 2.18 g/t Au and 1.9 g/t Ag over 6.1 meters, starting at 74.7 meters. This intercept included 1.52 m (5 feet) of 6.6 g/t Au, extending the WSZ approximately 15 m east of the deepest interval reported in RC drill hole 22-01. The Company engaged Caracle Creek International Consulting Inc. and its strategic partner Atticus Geoscience Consulting to analyze and model the drill hole data from the Western Slope Zone in a comprehensive 3D geological model and propose follow-up drill targets in the WSZ. Initial modeling has been completed giving the Company a better understanding of the orientation of mineralization in the WSZ. A very concise drilling program has been designed as part of the next phase of exploration at Excelsior Springs. Future exploration will focus on drilling the holes proposed by Caracle Creek/Atticus to continue to delineate and expand the WSZ. In addition, future exploration will aim to uncover new zones of mineralization starting with the area around historical drill hole GE-14. The area around GE-14 has a much different geochemical signature than the WSZ. Drill hole GE-14 is in an area about 325 m east of WSZ and returned 24.4 meters of 1.09 g/t Au starting at only 7.6 meters depth; this hole also had anomalous arsenic, antimony, bismuth, molybdenum, mercury, and tellurium. GE-14 is proximal to a mapped fault named the South Ridge Thrust Fault ("SRTF") which extends all the way to an IP anomaly in the southwest area of the Property. The SRTF appears to be similar to a traditional Intrusion Related Gold (IRG) system with elevated arsenic, bismuth and other key pathfinder elements associated with gold mineralization. This IRG target was further confirmed by more recent outcrop sampling by Athena's technical team at Contact Gulch, a surface exposure of the SRTF which returned almost 1 g/t Au and significantly elevated arsenic, bismuth, copper, and molybdenum concentrations. Elevated concentrations of these minerals are interpreted to be hydrothermally derived from a magmatic source. The Company has a high level of confidence in the gold exploration opportunity in the area around GE-14. 공지 • Jul 22
Athena Gold Corporation Completes Spring 2023 RC Drill Program Athena Gold Corporation announced that it has successfully completed the Company's Spring 2023 reverse circulation ("RC") drill program of nine (9) angle holes. Total footage was 3,740 feet (1,140 meters) at its Excelsior Springs Project ("Excelsior Springs" or the "ES Project"), located approximately 45 miles southwest of Goldfield in Esmeralda County, Nevada. Highlights from 2022 RC Drill Programs: DB-23: Intercepted a 33.5 meter intercept of 5.15 g/t Au and 8.9 g/t Ag, including a 16.7- meter intercept of 10.03 g/t Au and 17.3 g/t Ag, and a 10.6 meter intercept of 15.3 g/t Au and 26.5 g/t Ag. DH 22-01: Intercepted 6.05 g/t Au and 17.,4 g/t Ag over 27.4 meters starting at 39.5 meters, including 10.2 g/t Ag and 30.8 g/t Ag over 10.7meters. A deeper zone starting at 77.7 meters intercepted 4.97 g/t Au and 14.4 g/t Ag over 13.7 meters. DH 22-02: Intercepted 4.49 g/t Au and 27.3 g/t Ag over 15.2 meters starting at 41.1 meters, including 7.29 g/t Au and 44.2 g/t Ag over 9.1 meters. A deeper zone starting at 68.6 meters intercepted 1.20 g/t Au and 7.7 g/t Ag over 7.6 meters. The company continue to believe Excelsior Springs is emerging as one of the best advanced gold exploration projects in Nevada's Walker Lane Trend. RC Drilling at Excelsior Springs in June 2023. Developing Additional Exploration Targets: The company have identified several robust drill targets at Excelsior Springs and continue to do field work developing additional shallow- and high-grade drill targets. Recent sampling at Contact Gulch is an example of targets being analyzed and developed. Located only 0.5 miles east of the Western Slope Zone, Contact Gulch appears to be a surface expression of a limestone cap over siltstone that could contain mineralized material. Prior sampling done while conducting geologic mapping returned anomalous gold and arsenic in rock chip samples. New rock and soil assays are also pending from this area. All samples were shipped to American Assay Laboratories, an independent laboratory, in Reno, Nevada on July 7, 2023 for analysis. Assay results are expected in third quarter-2023. The Excelsior Springs Project (the "ES Project") lies within the prolific Walker Lane tectonic trend, a large northwest-trending region in western Nevada of, strike-slip and extensional fault zones. These fault zones are host to numerous gold deposits with strong district and local control of the gold mineralization. The ES Project contains numerous prospect pits, trenches, roads, surface sampling sites and 113 drill holes to date within a 300m by 3,000m wide (1,000 foot-wide and 10,000-foot-long east-west extensional zone of shearing and hydrothermal alteration. Underground workings on the two patented claims within the Project had unverified, historical production of 597,187 grams of gold (19,200 troy ounces) of gold from 18,000 tons averaging 1.2 oz (37.3 grams of gold/ton). Walker Lane is experiencing a major resurgence of intense and successful exploration projects.

Athena completed two RC drill programs in 2022 and intersected shallow high-grade oxide gold intervals which now comprise the Western Slope Zone. 2022 RC Drill Program Highlights: DB-23: Intercepted a 33.5 meter intercept of 5.15 g/t Au and 8.9 g/t Ag, including a 16.7- meter intercept of 10.03 g/t Au and 17.3 g/t Ag, and a 10.6 meter intercept of 15.3 g/t Au and 26.5 g/t Ag. DH 22-01: Intercepted 6.05 g/t Au and 17.4 g/t Ag over 27.4 meters starting at 39.5 meters, including 10.2 g/t Ag and 30.8 g/t Ag over 10.7meters. A deeper zone starting at 77.7 meters intercepted 4.97 g/t Au and 14.4 g/t Ag over 13.7 meters. DH 22-02: Intercepted 4.49 g/t Au and 27.3 g/t Ag over 15.2 meters starting at 41.1 meters, including 7.29 g/t Au and 44.2 g/t Ag over 9.1 meters. A deeper zone starting at 68.6 meters intercepted 1.20 g/t Au and 7.7 g/t Ag over 7.6 meters. It is important to note that DB-23, 22-01 and 22-02 all intercepted the high-grade gold mineralization at shallow depths, beginning 30 meters of the ground surface. True widths of the intercepts are not known. These holes were all drilled in 2022 and yielded the best GT results in the history of the Excelsior Springs project with over 100 RC holes drilled over the last 50 years. The recent review of all available data has confirmed the West Slope zone remains open and untested both east, west and at depth and the objective of current program is to examine strike and potential dip continuity of the upper high-grade zone. Another high-priority target for this program exists 300 meters east-south-east of the West Slope where a historic RC hole GE-14 intersected 24.3 meters at 1.09 g/t Au and 0.54 g/t Ag beginning 9.1 meters below the surface. Follow up Core and/or RC drill programs are contemplated for later in 2023 after analysis of the results from this initial 2023 program. Applicable permitting has been completed and initial 2023 drill program is expected to commence in early June 2023 subject to final confirmation from drill contractor. The program's drill footage and number of RC holes will be finalized prior to the start of the drill campaign. 공지 • Jan 12
Athena Gold Corporation Confirms and Extends Shallow High-Grade Oxide Gold Discovery with Multiple Intercepts Including 10.02 Au G/T Over 10.7 Meters at Its Excelsior Springs Project in Nevada Athena Gold Corporation announced assay results from its Fall 2022 drill program at its 100% owned Excelsior Springs Project located approximately 45 miles southwest of Goldfield in Esmeralda County, Nevada. Nine vertical and angled holes totaling 800 meters were completed on patented and unpatented claims comprising the Project. Fall 2022 Drill Program Highlights: DH 22-01: These combined intercepts yielded the thickest high-grade gold interval to date on the project and confirmed an eastern extension to mineralization encountered in drill hole DB23; The first interval intercepted 6.05 gold g/t and 17.4 silver g/t over 27.4 meters starting at 39.5 meters, including 10.2 Au g/t and 30.8 Ag g/t over 10.7 meters; a second deeper interval was intercepted starting at 77.7 meters grading 4.97 Au g/t and 14.4 Ag g/t over 13.7 meters. DH 22-02: These intercepts confirmed a western extension to mineralization found in drill hole DB23: The first interval intercepted 4.49 Au g/t and 27.3 Ag g/t over 15.2 meters starting at 41.1 meters, including 7.29 Au g/t Au and 44.2 Ag g/t over 9.1 meters; and a second deeper interval was intercepted starting at 68.6 meters grading 1.20 Au g/t and 7.7 Ag g/t over 7.6 meters. DH 22-01 + 02: Confirmed a new near surface high-grade oxide gold discovery in the newly named Western Slope Zone. The Western Slope zone sits on the edge of an untested sizeable geophysical anomaly which requires additional interpretation. DB-23 is now confirmed as a "discovery hole" as company has repeated it in step-outs in each direction in its Fall 2022 program. The company feels that the Excelsior Springs project is an important discovery in Nevada given its close proximity to major gold producers in the Walker Lane trend. Initial analysis is that the Western Slope could be at the "tip" of an Intrusion-Related Gold ("IRG") system that could potentially expand at depth and contain millions of ounces similar to other Tintina-Style gold deposits. 공지 • Nov 11
Athena Gold Completes Expanded Fall 2022 Drill Program Athena Gold Corporation announced that the Company increased the size of the Company's Fall 2022 reverse circulation ("RC") drill program to nine (9) angle holes from the previously announced six (6) angle holes. Total footage was increased to 2,700 feet (820 meters) at its Excelsior Springs Project ("Excelsior Springs" or the "Project"), located approximately 45 miles southwest of Goldfield in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The Excelsior Springs Project (the "Project") lies within the prolific Walker Lane tectonic trend, a large region of northwest-trending, strike-slip fault zones that host a significant number of precious metal deposits having very strong structural control for mineralization. The Project contains numerous prospect pits, trenches, roads, surface sampling sites and 104 drill holes to date within a 300m X 3,000m wide (1,000 foot-wide and 10,000-foot-long east-west trending zone of shearing and alteration. Underground workings on the two patented claims within the Project had unverified, historical production of 597,187 grams of gold (19,200 troy ounces) of gold from 18,000 tons averaging 1.2 oz (37.3 grams of gold/ton). Walker Lane is experiencing a major resurgence of intense and successful exploration and development. The Walker Lane has had total production of 20+ million ounces ("Moz") of gold, including the following deposits at Goldfields (5 Moz), Bullfrog (2 Moz), Tonopah (2 Moz), Mineral Ridge (1.5 Moz) and Comstock (8 Moz Au, 200 Moz Ag). Readers are cautioned that the Company has no interest in or right to acquire any interest in any of the above-mentioned properties, other than the Project, and that the mineral deposits, and the results of any exploration or mining thereof, on adjacent or similar properties are not indicative of potential mineral deposits on the Project or any potential exploitation thereof. Gold mineralization discovered at the Project to date occurs in quartz vein stock-works and silicified zones in hornfels and calc-silicate altered country rock and is generally close to porphyry dykes. The best (grades and thicknesses) in the recent past were found in oxidized and altered sediments immediately above porphyry dykes seemingly intruded along existing east- and east-northeast trending faults. The mineralized stock-work vein zones are shallow and have a relatively flat plunge, making them amenable to open pit mining methods. Most historical exploration at the Excelsior Springs Project has focused on a 2.5 km (8,200 feet) long section in the central part of the Buster zone where mineralization is at or near the surface. Surface mapping and an Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical survey conducted by Zonge International Inc. identified multiple zones of silicification that correlate well with the known mineralization. Many of the silicified zones defined by the IP (resistivity highs) surveys have not been tested by drilling and remain targets for future exploration. 공지 • Nov 01

Athena Gold Corporation Commences its Fall 2022 Reverse Circulation Drill Program Consisting of Six Angle Holes for Estimated 2,000 Feet at its Excelsior Springs Project, Nevada Athena Gold Corporation announced the commencement of the Company's fall 2022 reverse circulation (RC) drill program consisting of six angle holes for an estimated 2,000 feet (610 meters) at its Excelsior Springs Project, located approximately 45 miles southwest of Goldfield in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The Bureau of Land Management approved the permit for further drilling earlier this month. RC Drill Program commenced on October 26, 2022 at Excelsior Springs Project, Nevada. DB-23 Area: Proposed Holes 1-3 will target east, west and up-dip from high grade gold intercept in hole DB-23, which started at 140 feet (43 meters) deep and contained 110 feet (34 meters) of 5.2 g/t Au and 8.9 g/t Ag, including 55 feet (17 meters) of 10.0 g/t Au and 17.3 g/t Ag, and 35 feet (11 meters) of 15.3 g/t Au and 26.5 g/t Ag. DB-23 contained the highest-grade intercept of more than 20 feet thick at the Project and its Grade x Thickness (GT) product of 566 is twice as large as the next high GT on the Project. In addition, DB-23 is open up and down dip and untested for potential strike length extensions of at least 450 feet (137 meters) to the west and more than 1,000 feet (305 meters) to the east. East Buster Area: Proposed Hole 4 will test up dip from a 110 feet (34 meters) intercept in EX-2 averaging 2.7 g/t Au from 230 (70 meters) to 340 feet (140 meters) and the second-best GT of 299.9 on the Project. Hole 4 will also be drilled approximately 100 feet (30 meters) below a surface sample reported at 30 feet (10 meters) of 3.1 g/t Au. Proposed Hole 5 will test down dip from a 90 ft (27 meters) intercept in 88-06 averaging 2.5 g/t Au from 0 to 90 ft (27 meters), which is the third best GT at 223.92 on the Project. Hole 5 will also test downdip from the 110 ft (34 meters) intercept of 2.7 g/t Au in EX-2 discussed in Hole 4 above. Proposed Hole 6 will test up dip from intercepts in EX-15 of 35 ft (11 meters) of 0.74 g/t Au from 15 to 35 ft, 100 ft (30 meters) of 0.87 from 65 (20 meters) to 165 (50 meters) and 40 ft (12 meters) of 0.94 from 185 (56 meters) to 225 ft (69 meters) as well an intercept from 0 to 125 feet (38 meters) averaging 0.93 g/t Au in hole 88-08. Total GT's are 138.72 in EX-15 and 116.63 in 88-08. Quality Assurance and Quality Control: Procedures are being implemented to assure Quality Assurance Quality Control (QAQC) of drill hole assaying at an ISO Accredited assay laboratory in Reno. All 5-footdrill hole samples are being securely stored for shipment, with chain of custody documentation through delivery to the lab. Mineralized commercial reference standards and coarse blank standards are being inserted every 20th sample in sequence to assure acceptable levels of confidence of the drill hole assays. When laboratory reports of the assays are received, QAQC protocols are immediately augmented to ensure the precision and accuracy of the drill hole assays. As the Project advances, additional QAQC measures will be implemented including selected duplicate check assaying on pulps and coarse rejects at a second accredited assay laboratory. 공지 • Jul 01
Athena Gold Intercepts Shallow High-Grade Gold with 15.3 G/T over 35 Feet At Its Excelsior Springs Project, Nevada Athena Gold Corporation announced assay results from the 2022 reverse circulation ("RC") phase 1 drill program (the "Program") at its Excelsior Springs Project located approximately 45 miles southwest of Goldfield in Esmeralda County, Nevada. A total of 11 vertical and angle holes were completed in this Program in early April 2022 on patented and unpatented claims comprising the Project. High grade gold was discovered in hole DB-23 in a 110-foot intercept of 5.15 Au g/t and 8.9 Ag g/t including a 55-foot intercept of 10.03 Au g/t and 17.3 silver g/t, and 35-foot intercept of 15.3 Au g/t and 26.5 Ag g/t over 35 feet. These intercepts started at a depth of 140 feet in this 500 angled hole, which is located at the east end of known mineralization in the Buster zone. DB-23 contained the highest-grade intercept of more than 20 feet thick at the Project and its Grade x Thickness ("G x T") product of 566 is twice as large as the next highest G x T from the Project's known historical RC drilling. In addition, it is open up and down dip and untested for potential strike length extensions of at least 450' to the west and more than 1,000 feet to the east. The Program was designed to better delineate and expand known mineralization along strike at the Project, aggressively test new peripheral targets, and further substantiate the Project as a regional- scale, intrusion-related, gold-bearing, hydrothermal system. The high grade intercept in DB-23 is open and untested up and down dip and along strike length extensions of at least 450 feet to the west and more than 1,000 feet to the east. The intercept in DB-03 confirms the down dip and strike length extensions of gold mineralization from nearby historic RC holes. The intercept in BT-07 is an extension of known mineralization in the historic underground workings northeast from the Upper Buster shaft and supports subsequent drilling up and down dip and along strike further to the northeast. The intercepts in DB-22 appear to be located above the intercepts in DB-23 but further drilling and studies are required to fully define and assess the relationship of the intercepts in these two holes and the potential extensions therefrom. All samples were shipped to American Assay Laboratories, an independent ISO-certified laboratory in Reno, Nevada. Additional drilling and analysis are required to determine the extent and true thicknesses of the new and existing mineralized intervals. Future exploration plans at the Project include detailed geological studies of the projected outcrop of this new mineral discovery along with further review of historical information in this area. A Phase 2 drill program will then be designed primarily to extend this mineralization along strike and up and down dip, as well as drilling other priority targets. 공지 • Jun 10

Athena Gold Corporation Completes Drilling Program At Excelsior Springs Gold Project Athena Gold Corporation announced the successful completion of its reverse circulation drill program at its Excelsior Springs project in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The 2022 Drill Program was upsized to 5,575 feet from the originally planned 5,000 feet and was completed in early April 2022. A total of 11 vertical and angle holes were completed on both the patented and unpatented claims comprising the Project, ranging from depths of 350 to 900 feet. All RC samples were shipped to American Assay Laboratories, an independent laboratory, in Reno, Nevada on April 6, 2022 for analysis and the results are pending. The 2022 Drill Program was designed to better delineate and expand known mineralization along strike at the Excelsior Springs Project, aggressively test target areas and further substantiate that the Project is a regional-scale, intrusion-related, gold-bearing, hydrothermal system. About the Excelsior Springs Project: The Excelsior Springs Project mining claims cover an area of 3.5 km2 including the historic Buster mine, which had estimated historical production of 18,000 tonnes (T) at 37.3 grams gold per tonne (g Au/T) gold to a maximum depth of 70 m. The Excelsior Springs Project is located in the Walker Lane tectonic zone of southern Nevada, which hosts a number of large historic gold mines. Total gold production from the Walker Lane tectonic zone has exceeded 20 million ounces (Moz) including notable deposits by Goldfields (5 Moz), Bullfrog (2 Moz), Tonopah (2 Moz), Mineral Ridge (1.5 Moz) and Comstock (8 Moz Au, 200 Moz Ag). The reports of past production on the Excelsior Springs Project are historical in nature and may not accurately indicate the extent or grade of mineralization present at the Excelsior Springs Project. Although the Company believes the source of the historical information to be generally reliable, such information is subject to interpretation and cannot be verified with complete certainty due to limits on the availability and reliability of raw data and other inherent limitations and uncertainties. Readers are cautioned that the Company has no interest in or right to acquire any interest in any of the above-mentioned properties, other than the Excelsior Springs Project, and that the mineral deposits, and the results of any mining thereof, on adjacent or similar properties are not indicative of mineral deposits on the Excelsior Springs Project or any potential exploitation thereof. From the mid-1980s through 2011, several exploration companies conducted drilling programs at the Excelsior Springs Project, primarily on the patented claims, that began to define the near- surface Buster Mine gold zone. Gold mineralization at the Excelsior Springs Project occurs within an east-west trending zone that is 200 to 400m wide and at least 3 km long. Gold mineralization discovered at the Excelsior Springs Project to date occurs in quartz vein stock- works and silicified zones in hornfels and calc-silicate altered country rock and is generally close to porphyry dykes. The best mineralization (grade and thickness) is found in altered sediments immediately above porphyry dykes that have intruded along existing east- and east-northeast trending faults. Some mineralized stock-work vein zones are shallow and have a relatively flat plunge, making them amenable to open pit mining methods. Most historical exploration at the Excelsior Springs Project has focused on a 2.5 km long section in the central part of the Buster zone where mineralization is at or near the surface. Surface mapping and an Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical survey conducted by Zonge International Inc. identified multiple zones of silicification that correlate well with the known mineralization.
